All great tips, as always! Thank you and best of luck returning home 🙂
Thank you for sharing these tips. I'm actually going to Mexico this summer for the first time so I appreciate all the info you shared :)
So happy this helped!
Great video! We loved the tips 🙂
Thank you!
Congratulations on being able to come back to the us
Informative video, thanks so much for sharing :)
No problem! Happy to help :)
Thanks for the great tips! I'm moving from the Netherlands to Cuernavaca next week for my semester abroad and your videos are making me even more excited! 🥰😊
That's amazing!! My husband used to be the president of the international student club at this university in cuernavaca. He said the students always had the best time!! You're going to love it!!
i'm excited for you!! :D
We love Puerto Vallarta. Watching you and then you and Martin, have helped us love it even more.
November 2020, we had 30 people come to a surprise birthday party for my wife Nancy in Nuevo Vallarta. Not including our wedding or the birth of our three daughters, this was literally the best week of our life.
I always hoped Nancy and I would have been able to meet you and Martin while we were in Vallarta.
In your new travels and adventures, I pray that the worst day of your future will be no less than the very best day of your past. Thank you for always sharing your lives with us. Blessings.
This gave me chills. Thanks so much to you and Nancy for all the support over the years. I'd love to have some sort of meetup in PV in the future :)
@@TouristtoLocal Nancy and I are old enough to be your parents. That said, we have younger and older friends. The common thread is travel. I feel like if you have that in common, then age is never an issue.
November 14 2020, was Nancy’s belated surprise 60th birthday party. And on the 14th, we had been married for 14,000 days. Since it was such a mile stone, I decided that not only would I surprise Nancy with a birthday party, but also a surprise proposal, to have a ceremony to continue our wedding vows. (SHE SAID YES!) That ceremony will be on July 17, 2022 on our 40th anniversary. Since the proposal occurred in Vallarta, we may have the ceremony there also. However, we may have it in the Caribbean somewhere. We are in the planning stages now as it’s just about a year away. We would be so very honored, if you would attend. It’s an open invitation for you two. Absolutely do not feel like you need to come but it would be so cool if you were in the neighborhood for you to be part of our celebration.
I know that you two are very busy and have quite an agenda all the time, but if the stars were to align, it would be so cool (for us!)
I would be happy to stay in touch with you two as the plans become more finalized.
Currently we are expecting about 40 or 50 people to attend, but it may grow. There would be quite a number of people your age. And then some people our age, about a 50-50 mix. The cool thing is, no one would realize that you were not part of our family because you would fit in so well.
I hope you don’t feel this is awkward for us to invite you, but you feel like family. We have known you for so long, even though you don’t know us. It’s been pretty much a one way communication... you to all of your subscribers.
Blessings
PS: Gifts of any kind are forbidden. And fancy attire will not be allowed. It’s too hot in July 😃.
Thank you so much. It's really helped thanks ❤
Glad it helped!
Hello just like to say thank you for the health care advice, I've
got a immune disease and was abit worried about getting medication so thanks for the help, one love form Manchester
Happy to help!!
Nov 19, 2021: Thanks very much for the tips!
Thanks so much for watching!
Great tips ❤
Happy to help!
what a great video! another tip - I also land up saving up on unnecessary expenses like atm fees etc in Mexico - using apps like ATM Fee Saver - it helps find atms abroad with no fees or lower fees than others along with withdrawal limits etc. worth adding to your list of tricks!
Good tip! Thanks for watching!
This was very helpful, thank you! I'm maybe going to Mexico later this summer if I can find some affordable flights (I'm from Finland) so now I'm just trying to take in all the advice available haha. :)
Happy to help! Enjoy your trip :)
Welcome to Mexico, I love Finns, you will not be disappointed.
Learning about Dr Simi (after seeing his plush doll in person at a concert lol) is what made me wanna visit Mexico City. Such a beautiful story of the initiative for accessible medicine and healthcare 🤍
It's so funny how the doll has gone viral and now people are learning more! Cheers!
I’d recommend after an atm withdrawal go inside bank if open and ask them to give you small bills in place of large ones . People will often not have change if you buy something small with a big bill and some will pretend they don’t have it, been it’s been several years since I was in Mexico , but they used to do it in big banks with no problem several years ago.
That's such a great tip! We will do that ourselves next time :) Cheers!
I plan on going on tour of interior of Mexico when get new us passport can not enter Mexico now without no passport
I have a trip coming soon to Rocky point just getting advice
Have a great trip!
Thank you for your excellent videos! I have my apartment in Queretaro,Mexico now, and will be arriving on November 2, 2021.
1-800-GOT JUNK did an excellent job of removing my stuff, so now I own 2 suitcase and a backpack.
I always saw EL GRITO parade in Acapulco since 1962.
I stay at home and order groceries. I tour online. I traveled from age 20-73, and now at 79 next month, I am contented being home watching you beautiful people. Stay blessed always.
Look up Vicente Guerrero..
Judi
Wow that's amazing! You have quite the story!
I'm visiting Queretaro July 2022!
One more thing, VERY IMPORTANT.
Be sure to ask for more days on your stay permit when you encounter the Mexican immigration officer!!! And double check that that have written the correct amount of days you asked for because I don’t know why they are giving less then you ask for and if you have your ticket for a day after the date they have givin you. You will be in great trouble. There is a German tourist that was not aware of this, and got thrown in jail because he was in the country longer that the date on his permit, even if hijos ticket to exit the country had a later date!
Thanks for posting this!
Does that apply to a quick, like 2 week, trip? Are all visitors asked to give dates?
Great video and tips, thanks, Im heading to México in a few months, so I'm trying to get as many tips as possible, before i go lol, I do have one question, I've heard the water can be unsafe to drink, so my question is about brushing your teeth, should I use bottled water to rinse my brush? Or is the tap water ok?
Use bottled water to be safe as your stomach gets used to being in mexico. After a month, I started to just use tap water and was fine!
@@TouristtoLocal great, thanks for the reply
Does the pharmacy sell counterfeit medications?
I know in Tijuana that pharmacy only charges like five dollars for a doctor consultation.
Woah! That's so cheap!
Hi Juliana I have a question not on this topic but for ur K1 visa on the I-134 what would you suggest under intend to support time frame
I actually didn't include a specific timeline. I kept it more generic like "I will provide housing, food, entertainment, and any necessary medical expenses for the duration of his green card process, and a monthly stipend of $x per month.'
@@TouristtoLocal thank you so much Juliana... his appointment is Wednesday! So nervous best wishes to you and Martin!
I would love to move to Mexico live but Ohio is my permant home.
Leaving Paradise PV for US??? You sure about this? Thank you for the tips
I question it myself every day! Don't worry though, we'll be back!
What about if you don’t speak a lot or no Spanish? My bf is from Mexico and we are thinking of moving in a couple years and my Spanish is limited so I am nervous. I probably understand more then I speak
I studied Spanish as my minor in college, so I did have a background in it HOWEVER I have many friends who live in Mexico who only began learning it once they moved. You'd be surprised by how nice people are and willing to help! If you can, before you move I suggest at least taking a class or two to be familiar with the basics.
Did she say cuernavaca! ❤❤❤❤ my town.
Yup! Martin is from there, and I got to live there for a few years with him! THE BEST!
Pls watch TWO EXPATS MEXICO I don’t want anymore people having a horrible experience in Mexico
Im planning to visit in Jan or feb most likely Jan
Is the weather cold? Is that a bad time to visit?
Depends where you're going. In mexico city and in some places up north, it is pretty cold. By the beach, it's perfect in most places!
¡Hola guapa!
I am going to fly to Mexico city from San Francisco in May and I had 3 shots of Pfizer vaccine, do I have to have a PCR before my departure?!!!
No vaccines of COVID tests necessary to enter Mexico actually! But you do need to do a covid test to return to the usa, if that's your plan!
@@TouristtoLocal Thank you very much and God bless you 🙏
I disagree about ice cubes in some areas. Had an entire family get sick from canned coke with glasses of ice from a cantina in Tijuana a couple years ago.
Really?! Oh gosh that's terrible! Good to know! Guess I've just been lucky.
Is hardly to get sick from ice cubes, so is cheaper to get them from the store than to make them at home, so nobody make ice by their self, ice suppliers are well controlled.
Just curious if Mexico is so amazing, why are you returning to the States?
Getting Martín's citizenship first since it's the longer one, then working on Juliana's residency in Mexico afterwards! We want to make sure we have options to move around as we please. The pandemic was definitely a wakeup call!
New subscriber need your great help can I live in a hotel at 600 a month all included safe
🥰🥵🥰
Do you need health insurance there?
It's not required
How much was that root canal ? and where in Mexico were you ?
Hahahahha I don't even want to think about how many calories are in what we ate!
They disinfect the vegetables 😮
how much in mordida?
Your leaving Mexico 🇲🇽 😭 😢
Miss it so much already, but I'm definitely want to move back one day ;)
I can not use my ATM card in Mexico at all only valid in USA my ATM card so I have to go to USA in my paydays
